Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Beauty and Masked Beast

Lee Soohyun stepped into the place into the place for training, and fortunately enough, she remembered the direction to the place Miyeon showed her to.

Getting lost and then being scolded for being late was not something Soohyun took to be good, and checking the watch on her hand, she noticed that she was ten minutes early.

It was always better to be early than late.

From the corner of her eyes, Soohyun could see that Kim Soobin was talking with someone else, and standing over there, she cleared her throat, letting Soobin know of her presence.

In that instant, Soobin turned back to look at her, and that man he was talking to disappeared into the thin air in that moment.

"You are early," Soobin vocalised— his voice showing dissatisfaction.

"I have clearly left you instructions on how to come here on time. Since this is the first time, I am sparing you, but next time, be on time," he sternly stated.

'What in the world is wrong with being early? Hey! You can't expect me to be exactly on time, and I am just five minutes early. Tch!'

Despite of her true emotions towards it, she wore a soft smile on her face and nodded before bowing at the man before her.

Standing up straight afterwards, she simply kept on staring at him, afraid that one word from her mouth would aggravate him further. When Jinhee was dissatisfied with the situation, sometimes her mouth could not hide that away.

Seeing that Soobin was silently staring at her— as if expecting her to do something— she was confused.

'Should I start up the conversation? Ah! This is extremely nerve-wracking! Aish! Soohyun, leave it be! He won't exactly kill me, and if things get horrible, you can just cry to Minhyun about it! He won't be abandoning me, right?'

"Teacher Kim, should we start the training now?" Soohyun asked, raising one of her eyebrows. Her voice leaked out a hint of nervousness.

"Not until you apologize."

'Apology? What? Is that why he was staring at me? For an apology? He wanted me to be apologetic for being early! Like hell, I am apologising.'

"Omo! That slipped my mind. Thank you for reminding me, Teacher Kim," Soohyun voiced out.

Bowing completely, she added, "I am so sorry, Teacher Kim, and my actions will not repeated. I hope you can find it within your heart to forgive me and put everything in the past. I will be as obedient as possible from now on."

'You don't deserve that apology of mine, but considering how you told the key to how my training will be going, I guess I can apologize. Lee Soohyun, you need to accept the unjust at times to get a better future.'

"Hmm, you better remember those words of yours. Now, follow me," he said.

°°°

The two of them were currently at one corner of the field. While Kim Soobin was seated on a chair, Soohyun stood in front of him. 

She found it quite unfair on how he got to sit on a chair. Nevertheless, she understood how it would be foolish of her to comment on that. 

An intimidating air was let out by him, but that did not affect her as much as it did in the beginning. Being around Minhyun, she learned how to deal with such aura.

"Do you anything about the powers of Red Clan?" he questioned.

Lee Soohyun shook her head. 

The only thing she was aware of was what type of powers the members can possibly have, and she had an inkling that this was not his question was on.

"Well, the Red Clan members' power are divided into two types— attack and defense— with there being some exceptions like the Oracle. Depending on whether your powers are attack or defense, you will be given your weapon. There are also types of element one can control; I assume you know what Minhyun's main element is," he explained.

Recalling about the fight that has happened in the Moon Mansion, Soohyun nodded her head and answered, "Ice."

At that time, she had seen Minhyun's control over the ice, and therefore, she had assumed that to be his main power.

"He is one of the lucky ones to get ice as his main power. There are some quite unlucky ones who had fire as their main power," Soobin stated, "Those are the ones who suffer a lot."

Lee Soohyun could only imagine about how horrible that might be. Fire was their weakness, and having it as their main power was definitely unfortunate. It could even get detrimental for them.

"Before going over the rest of the things, let's determine your power first," Soobin vocalised, "For that, I can not help you, and you need to do it on your own."

Soohyun nodded.

Thinking about what type of power she might possess excited Soohyun, and various types of ideas began to run through her mind. Amongst those emotions was fear within her— fear that she will be one of those unlucky ones who will possess the power to control fire.

"You will have to meditate and concentrate your powers and, then, have to unleash the power that is within you," he stated, "This process usually takes a hour or so, but for few, it takes couple of days. If you fall in that 'few', then I have special tricks to get you to release your power."

Whatever those special tricks were, she had an ominous feelings regarding them and did not think she wanted to know what they were. She just prayed that she would be falling in those few.

"I will try my best," Soohyun voiced out.

"Did I give you the permission to speak?" he questioned.

'What? I am not allowed to say something as this simple as this!? What is this? Why am I stuck with someone as grumpy as him!? Ah! My luck just sucks.'

Soohyun simply shook her head— afraid that he will be rebuking her if she said anything— and thought that she had amazing self-control for not glaring at him.

"Use your words, Moon Jiwoo! Are you mute?" He voiced out.

"Of course n— I mean, sorry. I won't speak next time unless you give me the permission to do so. It was a great sin done by me, and please forgive me," Soohyun voiced out.

Noticing the sarcasm that leaked with her voice, Soohyun bit her tongue. Hopefully, he had not picked that up.

'Could it be that he holds some sort of grudge against me? So far, that seems to be the case! Ah! This sucks! Han Minhyun, I am really disappointed in you this time.'
